React Network Diagrams

This repository contains an initial set of React circuit drawing and network mapping components which are used within the ESnet Portal, but are not tied to ESnet, or even to network visualization.

The mapping portion of this library is used in the public facing ESnet Portal. The circuit diagrams code us used internally to track ESnet circuits in the ESDB.

Current features of the library include:

Circuit diagrams:
- Basic
- Concatenated
- Parallel
Circuit couplers
Patch panel diagrams
Topology mapping
- Higher level network traffic visualization
- Linear, arc, bidirectional traffic and square edge types
Route rendering

Please browse the examples for a feel for the library, or read on to get started.

Getting started

The charts library is intended to be used with npm and the built into your project with something like webpack.

npm install react-network-diagrams --save

Once installed, you can import the necessary components from the library:

import { TrafficMap } from "react-network-diagrams";

You can then render() the traffic map in your component:

<TrafficMap width={980} height={500} margin={50}
            topology={topo}
            traffic={traffic}
            edgeColorMap={edgeColorMap}
            edgeDrawingMethod="bidirectionalArrow"
            edgeThicknessMap={edgeThicknessMap}
            edgeShapeMap={edgeShapeMap}
            nodeSizeMap={nodeSizeMap}
            nodeShapeMap={nodeShapeMap}
            stylesMap={stylesMap}
            selection={mapSelection}
            onSelectionChange={this.handleSelectionChanged} />

See the examples for more information.

Examples

To run the examples yourself, from the main directory, you first need to run these commands in the specific order:

npm install lerna
lerna exec npm install
lerna bootstrap

This will bootstrap the packages in the current Lerna repo and install the development dependencies into your node_modules directory.

You can then start up the test server, as well as automatic source building, by doing:

npm run start

And now, for the magic, point your browser to:

http://localhost:3000/

From now on, if you change the source code for the examples section, the examples bundle will be rebuilt and the browser will refresh itself. Errors will also be reported in the browser window.

If you want to change the react-network-diagrams code, you will need to run npm run build after working on your changes and then, the browser running the examples should reflect the changes.

For changes within the main library, run the following commands before committing the code:

npm run build
npm run docs (if there's changes to the API documentation)

If there are changes to the website, run npm run build from the packages/website directory before merging to master.

Once this is done, you can make a pull request to merge this code into the master branch

Release Process

Deploying a new version

Merge all the changes you want to deploy into the master branch.

Make sure to add release notes in CHANGELOG.md

Then, from the top level directory, run

lerna publish

As part of this command, it will ask you the version number you want to pick.

Once that is selected, it will update the relevant package.json files and push code to github as well as deploy a new release to npm.

Deploying the website

Currently, the website that hosts the examples and documentation can be found here - http://software.es.net/react-network-diagrams

This is being served via github pages, from the branch gh-pages-latest. Make sure to merge the latest code from master into this branch and it should automatically deploy the latest website.
